Most of the topics covered on this site deal with Ethical Hacking topics, but a solid graps of general security is a must. This board covers those more general credentials from CompTIA, ISC2, SANS, etc.

What's interesting is, even now, I'm still thinking of: "Damnit, I should have done...", e.g., right now I'm trying something on my lab between a W2K3, OpenBSD, Solaris, Linux set up and I'm using EtherApe to see what is visible and what isn't. "Damnit... Etherape!" There are and were a lot of things I would do different and this is the beauty of the class... Even if I had the chance to do it different, the outcome would always be different as well

That's called EXPERIENCE, after you get the situation you learned a lesson and you will think different.
